A pilonidal sinus is a small tunnel or cavity in the skin, usually located in the cleft at the top of the buttocks near the tailbone. It often contains hair and debris and can become repeatedly infected, causing pain, swelling and discharge. It is most common in young adults and in those with thick body hair or a sedentary lifestyle.
Traditional surgery for pilonidal sinus could mean large wounds and long healing times. At Megha Surgical Hospital we offer modern laser and minimally invasive techniques that remove the sinus through small openings, greatly reducing pain and downtime.
